Refresh Grainy Thumbnail Images in FrontPage
Here
is a good tip that I haven't seen anywhere else. If the
thumbnails in FrontPage photo galleries become grainy and
washed out, you can open the Photo Gallery Properties dialog
box and slightly change the size of the thumbnails. This
seems to resample and restore them. Here's what you do:
1.
Right-click anywhere on the photo gallery in
Normal
view, and click Photo Gallery Properties on the
shortcut menu.
2.
Under
the Add button, select the thumbnail you want to
resize.
3.
Make
sure the Maintain aspect ratio box is checked.
4.
Under
Thumbnail size, enter 110 in the Width box,
and click OK.
5.
Repeat
steps 2 through 4 for each thumbnail that needs restoring.
If
you need to repeat this procedure on the thumbnails in a
photo gallery, first you must return the width of each
thumbnail to its original 100 pixels.
Editor's Note:
To try this tip, you will need a Photo Gallery. To create
one, click Web Components on the Insert menu.
Then click Photo Gallery in the left pane, choose a
Photo Gallery option (or layout), and click Finish.
When the Photo Gallery Properties dialog box appears,
click the Add button to add your photos.
